Crimson II is an album by Edge of Sanity. The album consists of one 43-minute-long song, split into 9 movements (because the label asked the "band" to split it up) and 44 sections to allow listeners to move through the song more easily. This split was also a means of piracy protection, as stated by Dan Swanö himself.

It was performed almost entirely by Dan Swanö, who played 5 instruments on the recording (Vocals, guitars, bass, drums, keyboards). He also had several friends help out, including Roger Johansson and Jonas Granvik on growling vocals, and Mike Wead on lead guitars. This album was dedicated in memory of Chuck Schuldiner and Lillägna
